**** The Official Samsung Galaxy S7/Edge Thread ****

Thought they may of been using the S7 edge calculator to work there deal out but that would have only gave you about 20p off .............:D


Well, Microsoft Excel agrees with the S7 calculator.

You need to do
500x80% or
500-(500x20%)

I saw this reply when I google it

SOMEONE ASKED
Not sure if anyone has tried this but I used the calculator last night on my s7 edge UK, tried 55-20%.....it came back repeatedly with 54.8!

Not 44.

I know new phones have bugs but jeez, the damn calculator? Something I use daily.

I've also had an issue where the music audio became distorted and quiet. Idiopathically resolved after 12 hours. Bizarre.

Anyways does anyone else have a wonky Samsung calculator?

I think it's a math/order of operations issue (the calculator is correct).
If my students wrote 55 - 20% I would ask 55 - (20 percent of WHAT)? What you want to do is 55 times 80%.
Your other calculators are wrong. 20% without context is 0.20, you are actually doing 55 - (20/100)

Now the other calculators, while mathematically incorrect, are skirting the rules with the intent that it assumes it knows what your are trying to do.

If you gave me that calculation, that is exactly what I'd give if I didn't have a chance to get you to correct the question.

500 - 20%*1
